Information

My plan is to start with LAWL in the New Year... I am pretty sure though that hubby is not going to want to pay out a huge amount for a weight loss program. (mainly because we can't afford it).

I have gathered lots of information about the coloured plans on the internet but what is lacking is the knowledge on how to put it all together. Some things that I am having trouble wrapping my head around are as follows.

1. What plan colour/number would I be on? I weigh about 160 and want to be 130-135.
2. How do you count a recipie... ie my MIL cooks a lot for us and there will be a casserole or something.. how do I figure out what that contained?
3. How do you record everyting? Do you get a diary when you join? I am a scrapbooker and would love to create a journal for myself based off of one that you would get from LAWL (if you do)
4. Does anyone have a copy of Deb's Cookbook?
5. Does anyone have any samples of what you eat on a daily basis.

That is all I can think of this morning. I do plan to go to a centre and see how much it will be. I am joining karate as well so that is a large chunk of money so I am afraid it will be me on my own and not doing well again..

Ok you would be on plan 3 no lites till you hit 145 pounds... that is
3Protien, 4 Veg, 3 fruit, 4 starch 2 fat...After you get to 145 pounds your plan would be plan 2... 2.5 p,3v, 3s,2D,2F...I write everything in a diary it keeps me honest. Watch out joining our center closed and they told us that they will all be closing. So what I do now is follow the plan and I joined a TOPS (take off pounds sensibly) and weigh in once a week it only costs $2 a week.
Hope this helps

My advice would be to skip the Karate costs and go for the LA center instead. The knowledge and discipline that I gained during the time I was able to visit the center are invaluable and I feel that the experience has changed my life forever.

I've tried to make total changes in the past - joining Weight Watchers and a gym at the same time thinking that I'm going to turn my whole life around, when in fact all I did was end up wasting my money on both places at once. When I joined LA and started losing the weight, I also gained the ambition to exercise, I felt great and motivated to go to the gym. For me, weightloss was about learning to eat right - more raw veggies than processed boxed foods and starches, and more fruit than fruit juices. My continued weightloss will now depend on increasing my activity level. Hope this helps you
